Scottish Colourists

About

The Scottish Colourists were a group of four Scottish painters active in the early 20th century, renowned for their vibrant use of color and influence from French Fauvism. Although they did not form a formal organization with a charter, they are historically recognized as a cohesive circle united by their shared artistic style and exhibitions in Edinburgh and London.
